    September 15, 2019 24th Sunday in Ordinary Time Our parish still has no phone lines. I’ve talked to 10 people over at CenturyLink last week and nobody will listen to me. I’m not an expert. I just want a tech to come out and I can show him what’s going on. I was really upset Friday because I called and said, “You guys were supposed to be here by 5:00.” It was 5:15. “Oh, it says here it can be done remotely.” No, it cannot be done remotely, I need somebody here. “Well, you’ve got to wait until the work order’s finished at 6:00 tonight and call back to repair and service and talk to them.” So I did. They’re going to come out Monday, when I’m not here. Maybe this week we’ll have phone service, who knows. It’s interesting building buildings. Somebody was asking me the other day, “Isn’t it tremendously stressful? How can you do that and be spiritual too?” I said, “You don’t.” I’m going to read you a modern day prodigal son. Dear Dad, It is with heavy heart that I write this letter. I decided to elope with my new girlfriend tomorrow. We wanted to avoid a scene with you and Mom. I found real passion with Tamara, and she is so lovely even with her nose piercing, tattoos and her tight motorcycle clothes. It’s not only the joy Dad, she’s pregnant and Tamara said that we’ll be very happy.

    3 Pain, Misery, Hate and Love All at Once A THEOLOGY OF SUFFERING I remember the period well. It was the months following the 1992 LA Riots. We were young, full of energy, and having bore witness to the destructive forces that tore our community apart, we wanted to change the direction of the ‘hood. So what did we do? We organized gangs, nonprofits and people with like-minded worldviews to create something that had never been done, a gang truce. A fifteen-city organizational effort involving gang leaders, commu- nity organizations and rappers like Tupac, the then lesser known Snoop Dogg and former members of NWA, as well as people who wanted to see a change from the violence of the 1980s, put together posters, banners, flyers and events that helped put a message of peace out in the commu- nity. Large gangs like the Crips and the Bloods came to park BBQ’s to celebrate the newfound peace. MTV covered many of the events. For the first time it seemed as though urban peace was beginning to take shape. I was truly amazed. Especially being as angry as I was after the Rodney King trial verdict, I was beginning to see some change that I could be a part of. We decided that each city needed to take their concerns to City SoulOfHipHop.indb 75 4/26/10 11:13:30 AM 76 THE SOUL OF HIP HOP Hall. We had hoped to file for a “state of emergency” to begin receiv- ing federal funds to clean up our ‘hoods and begin to restore our fam- ilies.

  • ADVANCE SHEET– APRIL 16, 2021 President's Letter
    ADVANCE SHEET– APRIL 16, 2021 President’s Letter In this issue we present two texts with cautionary lessons for an age of political polarization. The first is George Savile, Lord Halifax's The Character of a Trimmer on the virtue of using an individual's weight to balance extreme movements in politics. Halifax was born in 1633 and died in 1695. The second is the Edwardian Liberal politician John Morley's Essay on Compromise, one of Justice Felix Frankfurter's favorite texts. Morley was born in 1838 and died in 1923; he resigned from the British cabinet in opposition to Britain's entry into the First World War. In lieu of a judicial opinion, and in a similar spirit, we tender a Papal Encyclical, the Quadrigesmo Anno of Pope Pius XI in 1931, generally regarded as the clearest exposition of Catholic social doctrine. The child tax credit in the current infrastructure bill, which appears to enjoy some bipartisan support, owes something to the family allowances of Western European countries, and the encyclical was not without influence on the postwar Christian Democratic parties in Germany, Italy and France. The length of the texts and magazine is excused by the fact that they are not readily separately found in libraries George W. Liebmann A Hero For Our Times On August 20, 1941, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill uttered those immortal words “Never was so much owed by so many to so few.” France had surrendered several months earlier and with Germany’s invasion of Russia almost a year away and December 7, 1941 many months in the future, Britain was in fact standing alone.

    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATION ARTS AND SCIENCES IDENTITY AND HIP-HOP: AN ANALYSIS OF EGO-FUNCTION IN THE COLLEGE DROPOUT AND THE MISEDUCATION OF LAURYN HILL LAURA KASTNER SPRING 2017 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for baccalaureate degrees in Communication Arts & Sciences and Statistics with honors in Communication Arts & Sciences Reviewed and approved* by the following: Anne Demo Assistant Professor of Communication Arts & Sciences Thesis Supervisor Lori Bedell Senior Lecturer of Communication Arts & Sciences Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT In this thesis, I will be analyzing how Kanye West and Lauryn Hill create identity for themselves and their listeners in the albums The College Dropout and The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, respectively. Identity creation will be analyzed using Richard Gregg’s concept of ego-function. By applying the three stages of the theory – victimization of the ego, demonization of the enemy, and reaffirmation of the ego – to both albums, I hope to uncover the ways that both West and Hill contribute to identity creation. I also discuss the ways in which they create identity that cannot be explained by ego-function theory. I also briefly address the following questions: (1) How does the language of ego-function differ between the artists? (2) How does their music speak to listeners of different ethnicities? (3) What role does gender play in ego-function? Does the language of ego-function differ between genders? ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Acknowledgements ………………………………………………………………......iii Chapter 1 Introduction ................................................................................................. 1 Kanye West: The Jerk and the Genius ............................................................................
